Trinity swore under her breath, but made no sudden movements beyond an initially surprised glance around the elevator as it stopped. Her glasses hid just how quickly her eyes were scanning the interior for any kind of access panel, but everything looked exactly like a normal elevator -- which meant there were only two ways of getting out at present.
She looked up towards the ceiling -- she could try escaping through the paneling that way -- even as she considered the voice that had addressed her. It sounded generic, not human; but it couldn't have been true AI or it would have recognized her already, or at least had suspicions as to whom she was. Perhaps it had and was stalling.
Banking on hopes that it was simply an automated system and nothing more -- while her senses immediately perked up further to detect any unwanted sounds of approach -- she pressed the button for the desired floor again and responded clearly, "Visitor."
